I am a memory scientist, speaker, and author who is passionate about the study of memory in legal settings.

​

My research focus is on developing methods to improve the accuracy of witness testimony and criminal ID from lineups, which often entails collaborating on projects with the police, CPS, barristers, and survivors of sexual offences.

​

I've published on:

​​Indicators of eyewitness/victim memory reliability 

• How to improve accuracy in other race/ethnicity identifications

• The prevalence of alcohol and other drugs among witnesses and defendants in violent crimes

• How lineup identification ability develops from childhood to adolescence

• How eyewitness attention and memory are affected by the presence of a weapon during a crime

• The preservation and protection of memory evidence in low resource environments

• How eyewitness/victim memory influences prosecutorial decision making
